A-rod hit number 499 last night......here are 2 cool facts about the next 2 days.
• Figure this: Kansas City's starter Thursday was Jorge De La Rosa, who gave up A-Rod's 400th homer two years ago. A-Rod, who turns 32 Friday, would surpass Jimmie Foxx (32 years, 338 days) as the youngest player to reach 500 homers.
• Weird but true: If A-Rod homers Friday in Baltimore, in the resumed game that was suspended on June 28th, Wednesday's HR would become his 500th (the HR in the suspended game would be No. 493).
